Abstract
A clamped connection between a profile part and a sheet metal part by mans of a clamping strip. An edge area of the sheet metal part is held in its position between a foot portion of the clamping strip and a receiving device of the profile part and rests on an angular portion of the receiving device. An edge area of the sheet metal part, which projects into the receiving device and has a rectangular construction, is fixed in the receiving device by means of the clamping strip having an approximately T-shaped cross-section, the wedge-shaped foot portion of the clamping strip having at least one detent which interacts with an undercut area of the receiving device. Holding lips of a head portion of the clamping strip interact with the sheet metal part and the profile part in a supporting manner.
